\n The Retail Council of Quebec, a key player in the retail industry\n <\/div>\n\n

\n What does it mean to be a member of the Retail Council of Quebec?\n <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n

The Retail Council of Quebec was created in 1978. It is the largest retail association in Quebec. It operates in a \u201csolutions mode\u201d to help the governments (municipal, provincial and federal) think, strategize and decide on issues that matter to retailers.<\/p>\n

The Council is also resolutely involved in their daily lives, which is why its commitment is reflected in concrete actions for the entire retail sector: an active presence in traditional and social media to shape the debates and put the retail sector at the forefront in Quebec, the dissemination of a wide range of content, visits to retailers, training, coaching programs and personalized support, in addition to enriching committees and events that focus on networking and business growth. The Council\u2019s seeks to open discussions; to act as a facilitator of exchange.<\/p>\n

Above all, the Council\u2019s mandate is to raise the profile of the retail sector, which represents one-third of the Quebec economy. It\u2019s an innovative sector, in constant development, and teeming with passionate people, from management to advisors!<\/p>\n

The Retail Council of Quebec is committed to listening to it\u2019s members and staying ahead of current issues. It keeps abreast of new information, events and regulatory developments. It aims to support and defend the interests of its members and to be ready for any eventuality.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, the Council is quick to respond by being in constant contact with decision-makers regarding any advances, changes and regulations that come from the government, the municipalities or any other source. For example, the organization has been at the forefront of issues such as store hours, financial assistance and local purchasing. It is also working on current issues such as labor shortages, sustainable development, technology, credit card interchange fees and regulatory relief.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n
